8. A robotic device, comprising:
(a) an elongate device body configured to be positioned at least partially within a body cavity of a patient through an incision, the device body comprising a camera lumen defined within the device body;
(b) a first shoulder joint movably coupled to a distal end of the device body;
(c) a second shoulder joint movably coupled to the distal end of the device body;
(d) a first arm operably coupled to the first shoulder joint; and
(e) a second arm operably coupled to the second shoulder joint,
wherein the first arm and the second arm are positioned substantially within a longitudinal cross-section of the device body when the first arm and the second arm are extended in a straight configuration, and
wherein the first shoulder joint and the second shoulder joint are moveably coupled to the distal end of the device body at least when the first arm and the second arm are extended in the straight configuration.
